Technologies for engineering repetitive DNA
Abstract Repetitive DNA, a fundamental architectural element of genomes, is widespread across organisms and comprises about 54% of the human genome. With advances in long‐read sequencing and bioinformatics approaches, highly repetitive sequences can now be characterized in depth.

Transcription of multimeric tRNA genes
We have constructed a set of plasmids carrying a tRNAPro gene from C. elegans in a head to tail dimeric and trimeric arrangement with virtually no spacer sequence. We show that in two different transcriptional systems, each coding region functions as an internal promoter directing the synthesis of independent transcriptional products.

ROS responsive Aux/IAA multimerization modulates auxin responses
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) function as key signals in plants to enable adaptation to environmental stresses. Plant roots respond to transient water stress by temporarily ceasing branching using the acclimative response xerobranching 1 . In this study,

Depletion of cellular cholesterol inhibits membrane binding and higher-order multimerization of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 Gag [PDF]
Recent studies have suggested that the plasma membrane contains cholesterol-enriched microdomains known as lipid rafts. HIV-1 Gag binds raft-rich regions of the plasma membrane, and cholesterol depletion impairs HIV-1 particle production.

HU multimerization shift controls nucleoid compaction
HU networks control chromatin-like DNA compaction to synchronize bacterial responses for pathogenesis and changing environments. Molecular mechanisms controlling functional bacterial chromosome (nucleoid) compaction and organization are surprisingly ...

HIV-1 integrase tetramers are the antiviral target of pyridine-based allosteric integrase inhibitors
Allosteric HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors (ALLINIs) are a promising new class of antiretroviral agents that disrupt proper viral maturation by inducing hyper-multimerization of IN.

Multimerization rules for G-quadruplexes
G-quadruplexes can multimerize under certain conditions, but the sequence requirements of such structures are not well understood. In this study, we investigated the ability of all possible variants of the central tetrad in a monomeric, parallel-strand G-
